Lynch "Mstr"ing the Field

Mstr Lynch (yes his name is pronounced master) has vaulted his way into the chip lead here in level 9. Lynch scooped a huge pot in the previous level when his held in a big all in confrontation versus his opponent's . He has continued to build his chips since, and is now sitting on a monster stack of 120,000.

Lynch hasn't registered a live cash since Feburary of last year, but before that, he accomplished quite the feat when he won back-to-back preliminary events at Harrah's Rincon in 2011, winning a $555 buy-in and $1,080 buy in event.
